We Have 100 Senators Again

Sen. Al Franken (D-MN)In a 5-0 decision (PDF), the Minnesota Supreme Court rules that Al Franken is the duly elected Senator for Minnesota.

For all of the foregoing reasons, we affirm the decision of the trial court that Al Franken received the highest number of votes legally cast and is entitled under Minn. Stat. § 204C.40 (2008) to receive the certificate of election as United States Senator from the State of Minnesota.

And as as soon as Gov. Pawlenty signs that certificate, as he has indicated he will, we will have our 100th Senator.
